IDENTIFY FACTS, BASE INFORMATION, AND DESCRIBE HYPOTHETICAL SCENARIOS
Often relevant facts and figures are rather simple to collect, while other cases are comparably more complex and must be approached differently capitalizing on in-depth market knowledge.
Such complex cases can usually be found in the sphere of patent infringement and may require complex market dynamic analysis e.g., including:
- Considering different submarkets
- Resulting price erosions
- Tenders triggered by the infringement
- Impact of re-launches
- …
All resulting in a necessity to build various hypothetical market scenarios and to anticipate the market development which would have taken place without infringement.
